Ornately Functional: Form & Surface
October 4–5, 10:00AM–4:00pm
This workshop focuses on utilizing wheel-thrown and hand-built parts in building forms (flower vessels, teapots, boxes, cups and more) that are then enhanced with surface detail. The integration of ornamentation with these defined forms completes a detailed yet functional piece. Demonstrations include altering and building off the wheel, darting, slip-decorating, stamp-making and stamping. We will discuss aesthetics and proportion, timing in clay, idea-generation, and progressing one’s own work with learned techniques.

This 2-day workshop will be an investigation of how to create a life-size head with believable anatomy and work with it to convene something vital and individual. Tip will demonstrate and discuss capturing a frozen moment in a person’s life. She will employ how to animate gesture, the anatomy of expression, nuances to imply a narrative as well as describing characteristics of aging in clay. The second day she will refine and go on to demonstrate some cold surface techniques.
